BuddyPress.org

could someone give instructions on how to install?

i put home theme in themes directory

and member themes in member-themes directory

then activated home theme.

facebuddy home theme is loading, but i get default buddypress member theme.

do i have to activate member theme?

any suggestions?

nicola, I’ll add it when I know it’s working fine with buddypress. the config above works fine om my wpmu site, but as I said, I’m having problems with a buddypress site. The “problem” is that it’s not creating any errors I can use for debugging (and before you suggest that I should log errors .. I’m do that

I had this problem too, I found that it was a conflict with some of my plugins.

First, take out any plugins in /mu-plugins and try to activate the email again.

I found that wp-super-cache was causing some conflict in my blog, I took it out and it works perfectly now.

Then, if your activation works, place the buddypress plugins back in /mu-plugins and try to activate.

If these work, then one by one add the plugins that you had until you find the one that broke it.

That’s what I had to do and now my site works fine.

Hey benny148148, followed you here from the “other” forum;)

Here’s the thread I was referencing earlier regarding this same issue on my install (all default)… https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1315

However, at the end of the day, there is no solution. One of the BP gurus here, Burt Adsit, was helping me troubleshoot and referenced a possible fix, but didn’t know if it was to be put in trac as a bug fix. I’ve messaged him through my BP install, but haven’t heard back.

I checked trac and didn’t see any reference to this issue. Hopefully other will chime in with a fix.

I have the same problem and i fallowed the exact instructions.When i select the theme from the admin it doesn’t show up.I see the default theme for bddypress.

@sha_munira explain better your problem..

what does not work? how did you installed it?

member theme doest work…please help

I would try activating default Buddypress theme and see if the issue still occurs so that you can be sure it is not an issue with your theme…

The proof of this is in wp-admin/options-permalink.php, where “/blog” is permanently placed in front of the permalink url on lines 82, 92, and 102.

The function I was thinking of in functions.php was bp_show_home_blog(), but it doesn’t do exactly what I thought it did the way I thought it did it.

You should extend the deadline Daniel. With the downtime and people only really finding out about this in the last week, it’s not long enough to think about, design and build a decent theme. Just my 2 cents.

You should think of a home theme as just a standard WordPress blog theme. It is no different other than a few new files to handle directories.

A member theme is a “BuddyPress” theme, and should probably be called that.

You should treat them as two entirely different themes, your WordPress theme should have the styles and images for just the WordPress parts and your BuddyPress theme should have the styles and images for just the BuddyPress parts.

You could of course still provide the two themes in one download package, but they should still work independently. It’s not a good idea at all to make the themes dependent on one another. Someone may want to use your member theme but keep their own blog theme.

I’ll be writing more docs on this soon.

This is a theme problem. You seem to have solved that issue. You have another fatal error when viewing the blogs directory:

Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in /home/ladsmy/public_html/community/wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-core.php on line 930

If you temporarily switch to the standard bp home theme does this happen? If your problems go away by switching to the bp home theme then you need to contact your theme’s author.

pietro28 is saying that his permalink structure changed. It can’t by simply installing bp.
